Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Conducting polymers and their device performance has attracted swift development in the past three decades. The unique electrochemical properties of conducting polymers are lightweight, excellent conductivity, redox charge–discharge activities, wide electrochemical potential stability, and proton exchange activities. This significantly enlightens several research fields such as biomedical applications, electrochemical sensors, electrochromic, and advanced energy storage such as lithium, sodium, potassium, calcium, zinc/metal batteries, and hybrid supercapacitors.
The objective of this Special Issue will report the recent achievements in conducting polymers synthesis and characterization and overcomes present issues and future in its performance. Thus conducting polymers related to recent achievements welcomed in several fields such as solving in sensors, electrochromic, batteries (Li, Na, Al, K, Ca, and Zn batteries), gel polymer electrolytes, and fuel cells.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Polymers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
